2015 NASCIO Midyear Conference

DC Fly-In

NASCIO's D.C. Fly-In provides a venue for federal and state IT policymakers to share information that will shape public sector IT in the years to come. Your participation ensures that your state's viewpoints are heard and you are up to date on the latest IT policy issues that may impact your state government. The D.C. Fly-In is an opportunity for State CIOs and other key staff to meet with Congressional and federal government decision makers on policies and programs that have a significant impact on state governments.

The D.C. Fly-In event is open to only state CIOs and state policy officials, and the number of registrants is limited.

Registration will open soon.

Each year NASCIO gives back to the community of the conference location. This year in Alexandria, Virginia we are purchasing school supplies and backpacks for underprivileged children in the area. At the conference we will have a networking event where we will stuff the backpacks.

Please make your donation by March 27 so we can order the backpacks and supplies.

With the target donation of $30 we will be able to supply 125 Kindergartners with backpacks and their school supplies.

We are working in cooperation with the FACE Center in Alexandria, VA and will be using them as a resource for getting the backpacks to children in need.

What is FACE?

FACE stands for Family And Community Engagement. The goal of the FACE Center is to provide opportunities and resources for students, families and community members to participate in activities relevant to the academic achievement of ACPS students. Research indicates that engagement in schools not only helps improve student academic outcomes but is also linked to improved behavior, attendance, graduation and college enrollment rates.
